Adding a jerry can

[SabaII]

Just picked one up and was thinking of adding it next to the spare, to the left of it. I was wondering if anyone has done this using a bracket that would use the spare tires mounting points? I am just wondering if it will be strong enough? Any insight or ideas will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I wouldn't if I were you. The tailgate supports the weight of a standard spare tyre, but isn't really strong enough to take the weight of a full jerrycan.

X2 don't do it. My tailgate shows the scars of an oversized wheel.

The wheel alone made me upgrade the bumper and add a independent tire and can holder(s).

Bummer. Thought that was a good idea for a moment then thought 8 should probably ask ha ha. Well thanks for the input. Need to come up with another idea I spose.

You can check on the hitch mounts. Think it was either here or on LOST. Another option is tossing it on the roof if it is a nonleaking can. Might be another option out there but I am drawing a blank right now.

See, I knew that would come back in a discussion of the weight capacity of the spare/tailgate!
